Chinese researchers converting coal directly into electricity by an electrochemical process. Needs many more years for development. The problem is it’s still a finite resource being used up. And there is still the waste left over. Solar and wind are infinite and free. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid028ZMxJRtnzemcj46uq9d4umqztWpJDeWnuGLhaSo2dcE1erQqvW4xeRK1UZyYxsfJl&id=100064453789721&post_id=100064453789721_pfbid028ZMxJRtnzemcj46uq9d4umqztWpJDeWnuGLhaSo2dcE1erQqvW4xeRK1UZyYxsfJl&mibextid=NOb6eG

2026-01-06 Will Quantum Dots Double The Solar Efficiency?
“”Quantum dots are smashing the 33.7% solar efficiency wall with a theoretical potential of 66% to 80%. Unlike standard panels that generate one electron per photon, these “artificial atoms” use Multiple Exciton Generation (MEG) to trigger two or more. This breakthrough is fueling a market projected to skyrocket to $3.9 billion by 2035.”” POLARIS https://www.facebook.com/reel/888005373811370/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e
